As the rind of my survival self thins, the fruit of my True Self grows #musing (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqcZXgMFgLl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=g1lbby9wt7op

This all started with loving this person unconditionally: me. (at Austin, Texas)

This all began when I learned to love someone unconditionally: me (at Austin, Texas)

No guru required. #pictomusing (at Austin, Texas)

Book No. 32 of 2017. An intro to mindfulness and awareness. Basic but highly implementable concepts. I’ve had this one for a few years. I don’t remember what prompted me to by it. I often purchase books and don’t read them until they speak to me. This one came at a perfect time as I let go of the old and welcomed a still mostly unknown new. #neverstopreading (at Austin, Texas)

Without sorrow, we can’t know joy. Yet it’s easy to just live in the grey middle. But nothing grows there. #pictomusing (at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport)

A #pictomusing about how you see you. (at Austin, Texas)

A #pictomusing about the inseparable bond between divinity and humanity. (at Austin, Texas)

A #pictomusing for your pondering. (at Austin, Texas)

A #pictomusing about the state of dialog in the US. Observe a topic, a hot button issue, a tragedy and note how we are herded to the edges; pressured to choose a side. 24/7 “news”, social media posts, comment sections are all fueled by this. The cost is the near utter loss of thoughtful reason, logical examination. (at Austin, Texas)

Book No. 29 of 2017. This book is a mustard seed. So tiny, yet so full of life and growth. A book that can’t be explained; only experienced. #neverstopreading (at Austin, Texas)

From “The Way to Love” by Anthony De Mello. My first and most influential spiritual teacher was a man named John Sterling. De Mello’s understanding of the mind, soul and body remind me of John. I’m certain they would have been friends. (at Austin, Texas)

Heard Mr Isaacson say this on Tim Ferriss’ podcast. So brilliant. You can’t innovate if you let the gravitational suck of sameness pull you back from the edge of doing and making things that put a dent in humanity. (at Austin, Texas)

A #pictomusing about our intrinsic ability to flourish. But only if we choose it.

A #pictomusing reminder that the only effort the moon puts forth in order to reflect the sun is to be available. (at Austin, Texas)

Go. (at Austin, Texas)

A #latergram of the mountains on way out of Jackson Hole. I will take mountains over the beach any day. (at Jackson Hole Airport)
